1996 Lumina Passkey Resistor Bypass

I measured the resistance of both keys, one was 1.892kohms, and the other was 1.921kohms. Located the two white wires beneath the steering column cover, cut them and connected a 2.2kohm resistor........... didn't work. I returned to Radio Shack and purchased a 5kohm potentiometer, set it for 1.9kohms, connected it and it WORKS............ EVERYTIME!

Thanks Automotive Forums! Great information here!

Good idea! Thanks.
